@drea.nature.girl: It’s always so fun trying new things & connecting with nature while doing it 💚 It’s been so interesting learning about our property and what it was before it turned into an ag field. My father stopped mowing most of this this old ag field around 40 years ago and let it turn back into the red maple swamp it once was. We now have hundreds of red maples, which also work beautifully for maple syrup 🍁 I’ll be posting the boiling process next 😊 #nativeplants #growyourownfood #maplesyrup #Sustainability #environmentalscience
